The first full week of autumn will be rather tame across the Front Range. A ridge of high pressure will provide warm and mostly dry conditions through Thursday for the area, but a storm system is eyeing the region Friday into Saturday with rain and some Mountain snow on the way. Read on for all the details.
⦁❶⦁ Remnant tropical moisture from once-Hurricane Kay is fully-entrenched across the state today
⦁❷⦁ Widely scattered afternoon and evening showers and storms expected with highs around 80 degrees
⦁❸⦁ The moisture lingers through Friday and so too will the (slight) rainfall chances
⦁❹⦁ A deep trough develops along the West Coast this weekend but it may never reach Colorado
After setting multiple record high temperatures during the heatwave last week followed by a pleasantly cooler weekend, this week our temperatures will stay mostly above normal with some chances for rain mixed in as the remnants of Hurricane Kay pass across the Rockies. The week will end warm and mostly dry with that same trend continuing through the upcoming weekend. Let’s take a look at the weather week ahead for the Front Range.
The extreme heatwave unfolding across the West continues in full-force for one more day in Colorado. Unfortunately, the hottest temperatures thus far still lie ahead on Thursday alongside elevated fire danger. The end is in sight though — two cold fronts bring a taste of autumn this weekend. We discuss how hot it will get Thursday, the timing of the big changes, and just how chilly it will be this weekend.
After several dry summers in a row, the 2022 monsoon season has been a breath of fresh air for most of the Front Range, thanks mainly to the recent soggy weather culminating in localized flash flooding earlier this week. As monsoon season begins to wind down across Colorado, we discuss the recent and seasonal rainfall totals, why this year’s monsoon has been atypical, and how climate change may impact future monsoons.
After one of the driest starts to the summer monsoon season on record across the Front Range, things have started to change somewhat following a surge of monsoon rainfall in the final days of July. We review what has transpired so far this summer, look at where 2022 fits into the historical monsoon climatology, and discuss the temperature and precipitation outlook for the month of August.
